Blah
misty · Thu, Feb 4, 2016I wouldn’t say that today was a difficult day. I also wouldn’t say it was particularly interesting. It was one of those days that just felt like any other day. We played in her bumbo a bit, but Milo didn’t want to be there very long. She played in the exersaucer for a very little time, but she got it dirty, so she couldn’t stay there long.
Milo was very nice this afternoon as I cooked dinner. She played in her high chair as I narrated dinner preparation. I’m thinking about giving her egg yolk soon because my baby nutrition class leader said that it can be a very good first food for baby. I was tempted today, but we’re planning on giving carrots soon, so I refrained.
Anyhow, this evening’s bedtime routine was nice. I think that either we’re starting the routine too late or Milo is responding to her sleep cues very quickly because lately as soon as we turn on the white noise and start singing, Milo gets super cranky and begins to cry. She calms and falls asleep without too much trouble each night, but the crying is becoming a pretty regular thing. But she’s still going to sleep easily, so I guess I shouldn’t be too worried about it.
Notes:
Milo finally had a good (and very stinky) poop today. I think our course of action is going to be a little bit of prune juice every day along with her solids so that there’s a little something to help her system process what she’s eating.
Chase got home late, so there wasn’t much time for play before bed. But Milo was excited, as usual, to see him and spend a little bit of time with him this evening.
Milo continues to get stronger and stronger. She still loves to grab our camelbak water bottle whenever we’re drinking out if it, and lately it’s getting more difficult to keep her from pulling it right out of our hands. Chase and I are hoping that our habit of drinking water out of that bottle will encourage Milo to want to drink lots of water. They mimic what they see, right?
